As I understand it the Schengen agreement between EU countries allows free passage between the collaborating countries without the need to show passports. The UK does not participate as we don't trust the border controls of other countries. A US citizen travelling to a Schengen country needs to have the correct permit / Visa / whatever to visit that country and then will be free to visit all other Schengen countries.

Who does one speak to about a plan to travel throughout different European countries each week for longer than the 90 day visa-free Schengen agreed upon time as a US Citizen?
If you leave the Schengen area and go to a non-Schengen country, and then re-enter the Schengen area later, the "clock" starts again from zero. If you do not need a Schengen visa, this is an advantage. If you do need a visa, it is a disadvantage as you need to get a multiple-entry visa. So, if you plan in a trip outside Schengen in the middle of your travels, you can get 2 x 90 days. For example, if you are in France, you could do a trip to London, as the UK is not in Schengen.

A Schengen visa is never valid for the UK. You need to ask the UK embassy in the USA (or look on their website) to find out if someone of your nationality requires a transit visa for the UK.
